Smile Just wanted to say Hello as I am new to this forum

Hi, My name is Lauren, and I just wanted to say that I think this forum is is wonderful and have learned alot just reading the post's, I am new to here, and have just aquired 3 cavies, 2 baby girls that are 8 weeks old, that we adopted through our local humane society, their names are chloe and panda, right after I adopted them, a customer of mine came into my shop with her guinea pig named oreo that she was looking for a home for, and ended up adopting him too! He was so sweet, I couldn't resist, He is 2 years old, and the cutest thing, his picture is on my thread. I am basically a new cavy owner, I did have them years ago, when not as much was known about them and their needs, and I am glad there are places like this to go to for alot of info. I am feeding mine oxbow pellets, and oxbow timothy hay, plenty of fresh veggies and fruit every day, and special treats. I am waiting right now for their coroplast setup, as Oreo came to me in a way too small cage, that there is no way I am going to keep him in any longer then I have to, but of course I have to keep him seperate from my baby girls. Well anyways just wanted to say Hi, and I am sure I will be posting alot more, and with many questions.

No, Oreo isn't neutered, but will never be in the same space as the girls, they have seperate cages n ear each other.

Hi, and Welcome! I'm pretty new too. I just became a member a few days ago, so far everyone has been very helpful and patient with my lack of knowledge about guinea pigs. Try looking around this site along with guineapigcages.com and guinealynx.com, they all have some wonderful infomation.

Hello! I also have one boy and two girls. Unfortunatley we didn't know the boy was a boy until it was too late. Now I have babies on the way.

Welcome to the forum. There are lots of new things to learn here!
